Hey, this is Alex!👋
I have more than 5 years of experience designing and building different industry prototypes across various industries. My latest projects have been done at Tesla, where I worked as a full-time Mechanical Design Engineer on the Motor Design Team. Designing multiple R&D and test equipment used to improve Tesla´s motor designs, focusing on critical components like rotors, stators, and position sensors.
I also have been fortunate enough to work as a product design engineer intern for a medical device startup, where I developed an extruder machine from scratch. The goal of that machine was to manufacture a clinical-grade filament to be used in a medical device to treat aortic dissections. Aside from this experience, in 2019 I founded my own Startup, with the idea of bringing a new CNC router to the market. During this time, I developed seven different prototypes of CNC machines, each one better than the last. It has been an extremely exciting journey from which I gained a significant amount of knowledge, both from an engineering and management perspective.
I hold a Master’s in Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in product design from the University of California, Berkeley. Prior to my graduate studies, I earned two bachelor's degrees: a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering (B.Eng.) and a Bachelor of Business Management (BBA).
I am passionate about creating value through innovation and technology. I am constantly looking for new challenging problems to solve as it helps enhance my learning and develop a diverse skill set.
